The Basics: Tops

Ello Youvies!

Today we'd like to discuss tops, more specifically, how they should fit. The fit of all the pieces you're rockin' is perhaps the most important part of your outfit. So before you go out and buy that paisley button up (don't do that),  let's explore some basic tips for fitting a top. 

1. Shoulders:The most fundamental part about fitting a top is making sure that the shoulder seam sits right at the corner of your shoulder. 
H&M: $7.95

2. Length: Make sure that the length of your shirt (excluding dress shirts) covers at least half of your belt and doesn't drop any farther than halfway down the zipper. 
H&M: $29.95
3. Short sleeves: When wearing short sleeves make sure that they length of the sleeve stops at about the midpoint of your upper arm. If you have smaller arms, the length can be brought up.
Forever 21: $9.80

4. Long sleeves: When wearing long sleeves, make sure that they cover all of your wrist and stop right at the base of the hand.
H&M: $39.95
